We are currently living in the age of the tattoo. A Harris 2015 online survey poll of 2,225 American adults found that 29% have tattoos. That was up from 21% just four years earlier. And of those who have a tattoo, 69% have two or more. I guess once you take the plunge and get one, you have no qualms about getting another one.

According to the poll, the demographics of tattooed people break down as follows: (I’ll provide a definition for each age group, but please understand that there isn’t always total agreement on when an age group begins and ends.)

Millennials (born between 1980 and 2000): 47% have at least one tattoo, and 37% have at least two.

Generation Xers (born between 1965 and 1980): 36% have at least one tattoo, and 24% have at least two.

Personally I don’t like any daint on my skin much less having a permanent ink on my skin. I find it occupying… Smiles. As a believer there are some things that I am just not licensed to do. I don’t own myself anymore. Thank you for this great reminder.
